but in connecticut the burger family made that choice. before the affordable care act was passed, in the two-week period of time where mr. burger didn't have health care insurance, their son was diagnosed with cancer, and when he got on his new plan, it was a preexisting condition, so it wasn't covered, and the burger family lost everything. they went through their savings account. they lost their house. but they went bankrupt, and they were one of thousands and thousands of families who made that choice. that rarely happens any longer. the number of personal bankruptcies in this country have been cut in half because of the affordable care act. the affordable care act hasn't made health care magically affordable for everyone, but it has meant that people don't have to make that choice any longer. the scope of the pain that we're talking about -- if any of the three versions of that bill get a vote -- really is hard to fathom. under the original version of the bill, 23 million people would lose insurance. now, i amended this chart when a s

a lot of them live in connecticut. i don't have any fear that there is going to be a rapid diminution in the amount of money that c.e.o.'s are making, but at least those companies will pay taxes on those exorbitant salaries. we'll be able to use that money to make sure that their customers, the people that are buying the goods that these big companies make, actually have the purchasing power with which to enter and be active in the economy. and i guess that's the piece of economics that i'll end on here. by putting $50 more a month into the hands of frail, poor seniors and disabled, you are providing an enormous economic benefit to the economy because all of that money is going to go into the economy. let me tell you what a senior living at or below the poverty line is going to do at $50 a month. they're going to put it into food. they're going to put it into medicine. they're going to put it into main street businesses. the fact is when you instead decide to subsidize salaries of above a million dollars, that money is
